Moving Apps from One Account to Another

When I moved to my new job I got a new phone. Not being sure what to do I set up a new BB Id with my new e-mail. Now I can't get my apps from my old account. How can I move those apps from my old account to my new one without having to pay for them again?

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
It is a matter of using that old BB ID...apps cannot transfer between BB IDs, but BB IDs can transfer between devices, carrying along their purchase records.
To re-install your apps, please see this KB:
KB17625 How to install or transfer previously purchased applications from BlackBerry App World to a BlackBerry smartphone
Given that you've already created a new BB ID on the new device, you may also need this KB:
KB26694 How to change the BlackBerry ID on a BlackBerry PlayBook tablet or BlackBerry smartphone
I'm sorry that the process will be so cumbersome, but it is what it is.
Cheers!

Transfer iPhone Apps from One Account to Another

*Hello everybody,*
*Since I'll be moving to Germany soon to study Medicine, I've created a new iTunes account which is the one I use regularly. I was wondering if there is a possible way to transfer paid apps from one account to another for the same iPhone, and if it's not possible what do you suggest so I can still use my paid apps with my new account.*
*Thank you*

What you would do is on computer authorize other account for that computer. So you computer is authorized to play both accounts. Then you can sync apps from both accounts to your phone using the same computer as before.
My wife and I both have our own accounts and each of our instances of iTunes have authorized each others accounts for that computer. So I can sync her apps and she can sync mine. Just becomes a pain when you update an app via the cell phone when updates come out as trying to do all at once usually fails if the apps for updating are for each account. So have to do one at a time or just have them update via iTunes and sync.

How can i transfer apps from one account to another.?

now i had bought apps with my old account. but when i sync them into my phone i cant update them using my account, i need the old itunes i had. How can i transfer all bought apps onto my new account?

You can't.
All 3rd party apps - all paid and free apps include DRM protection which is tied to the iTunes account used to purchase/download the apps. DRM cannot be transferred from one account to another.
Why did you get a new iTunes account? Changing your email address alone does not require doing so.

How can I transfer my apps from one account to another

Apple will not permit transfer of applications from one account to another. Suppose your mom has presented an iPad to you and before presenting she has downloaded some Apps with her account. If you want to update those Apps, you must know her pass word or send the iPad to her and request her to update and give back. If you feel it is time consuming and difficult, the best way is purchase new iPad and down load the latest version of App. Whenever you come across you go on purchasing new iPad. This will help you to have latest version of iPad with you.

Transfer app from one account to another with same SKU number

Hi,
I want to transfer a application from one account to another and i get this error:
You cannot transfer apps with a App product ID that is the same as a product ID used by the recipient's app.
The Apple ID for both applications is different.
The only thing in common in the SKU number which i have to admit, is poorly chosen for both apps - 01.
I don't want to re-submit my apps so i can choose a new SKU number for one of them.
Is there any way i can transfer them ?
I think you should be able to choose a new SKU number when you transfer to another account because your app is going to belong in a new inventory.
Thanks

Found the answer today from Apple:
"It is not possible to transfer an app that has an identical SKU/product ID to another app on the recipient's account. If you would like the app to be distributed on the App Store through this specific account, you will need to remove it from sale, delete it from the current account, and then upload it as a new app in the new account. Deleting the app will enable you to use the app name in the new account.
When you move the app to the new account, you will disable current customers from receiving automatic and free updates of your app. Also, all customer reviews, rating, and ranking information will be reset.
Deleting an app permanently removes the app and any associated In-App Purchases from iTunes Connect. After the app has been deleted, you won’t be able to reuse your app name and SKU. Also, if you have uploaded a binary or enabled the app for the iAd Network, you won’t be able to reuse your Bundle ID.

Moving app from one screen to another fails very often

I'm using the feature to manually move apps from one screen to another on iPhones. It works very smooth without any problem on these devices.
On my iPad 3 I've some trouble with that feature. 1 out of 20 tries works. It makes no difference if moved slow, fast or concentrated - it fails too often.
Spoken with other people using iPad leads to the results the problem also exists on iPad 2. So what happens? You switch to edit mode by holding the "Home" button and wait until the apps are vibrating. Now you put a finger over an app, hold them and move them to the right or left display border. Instead of switching to the next screen the icon jumps back to it's original position. Different people tried it on my iPad and all of them failed in the given rate.
Workaround is to use the shortcut bar on the bottom or to use iTunes from Mac or PC. I've also noticed that most of the time a "close" request of an application (by hitting the "-" sign on an app icon) failed if the app is on the border of the display. This happens randomly and you feel you missed the "-" sign so repeating the operation. But if you concentrate on it you will notice it doesn't respond properly.
As a result my impression is the touchscreen functionality is not as good as on iPhone. Where I have no problem at all with both operations. As other people also suffer from this issues it must be related to the iPad screen.

Yes by restoring the iPhone from the backup of the Pod. The app has to be in the iTunes library of the computer on which you do the restore.

Moving money from one account to another

Can I move my money from cards from one account to another. If I can, how do you?

ok, thanks. this is really helpful advice.

Moving apps from one iPad to another

Can I move paid apps from one iPad to another?

Yes. Follow the instructions here or here; using the first set of instructions then requires syncing the new device with the iTunes library containing the content.

Having Trouble Moving Apps From One Page to Another

I can easily move apps around on the same page. But I can't seem to move an app from one page to another. They stop at the side of the screen and won't move to the next page. Is there a secret to this or does it take fancy dexterity?

It takes a little dexterity but if you have 9 pAges of apps then it takes pure magic to move any to the
Tenth page. I still haven't been able to do it. I've discovered how to delete those pesky defAult apps though. You put them on the ninth page then drag another app onto page nine and push the other one right off. Disappears forever

"Customizing the Home Screen
You can customize the layout of icons on the Home screen—including the Dock
icons along the bottom of the screen. If you want, arrange them over multiple Home
screens.
Rearrange icons:
1 Touch and hold any Home screen icon until the icons begin to wiggle.
2 Arrange the icons by dragging them.
3 Press the Home button to save your arrangement.
You can also add links to your favorite webpages on the Home screen. See “Web
Clips” on page 58.
Create additional Home screens: While arranging icons, drag an icon to the right
edge of the screen until a new screen appears. You can flick to return to the original
screen and drag more icons to the new screen.

How to change app from one account to another

Hi,
I have been downloaded a lot of apps from Mac Store, but I had done a mess with a lot of accounts... Every time that I want to upgrade an app I must sign out one account and sign in with another one (I believe I have 4 accounts).
I want to "transfer" all apps to only one account, my developer one.
How can I do that?
Thanks!

I have multiple Apple IDs. Is there a way for me to merge them into a single Apple ID?
Apple IDs cannot be merged. You should use your preferred Apple ID from now on, but you can still access your purchased items such as music, movies, or software using your other Apple IDs.
From Here http://support.apple.com/kb/HE37
If you like you could Contact iTunes Customer Service and request assistance

Good Luck.

How do I migrate (change) my apps from one account to another?

how do I move apps to an account of Argentina for an account in Uruguay?

I have 2 Apple IDs: A & B. A is my iTunes ID; while B is my Apple Discussions, Apple hardware/software registration, etc. Both have a database with my name, address, purchase history, registration, etc. Why is it "fraud prevention" to not allow everything under ID "B"? Or do you mean not buying all my music/apps/books/ a second time is "fraud" because Apple would get more money?
If other companies can merge their customer's separate data into one, Apple should be able to do so. I'm sure that those other companies are able to safeguard, say, your data from me trying to add it to my ID, or vice versa, while merging a customer's date into one record.
Meanwhile, there is still the problem of unwanted IDs "C" & "D"; I'm just ignoring them for now.

Transfer Apps from one account to another

I'm not sure if this post is in the right area:
I have about 5 apps that I purchased through my wife's account at the iTunes store. Is there a way that I can transfer these apps to my account? It sure would make updates through iTunes easier, as right now I have to log out of one account and in to another for all updates to occur.
Thanks!

No. DRM does not permit this. The way you're doing it is the way it has to be done. While you can share apps, you cannot transfer them. Same applies to music, etc.

Syncing apps from one account to another

I am using a new itunes account how to get old apps from my first account to sync to new account so it uses new account when i want to update them??
please help

As long as you have the password and your mum's permission you can authorise your computer for both accounts. Updating apps from the two accounts is a bit fiddly as you have to sign out of one account and then into the other, but it is doable. If your mum doesn't use iTunes you should also set the payment method on her account to none so you don't accidentally purchase anything through her account in future.
